Hippie Camper... or is it Happy Camper?

Every once in awhile, I go camping. The main reason isn't for lindens, which as many of us remember (it would take a week to save up for a new pair of shoes). I like meeting new people to SL. I like helping out those that are lost. And, I like giving old pieces of my inventory to those with great personalities in dire need. Of course, I have to dress the part. If I'm going camping, I want to dress to go camping. or at the very list a little on the hippie side :)
The shirt is from a men's store, Chase, but it complements the female figure well.
The shorts were a great second find on my quest to find a baseball cap at Argrace (see the previous blog). The accessories are all from Shiny Things.

Casual Sunday

Somedays, you just feel like pulling your hair back. I did a little windsurfing and parasailing today, and didn't really want to wear a bikini. I threw on this little number and fell in love with it. This shirt by Karamia has been a favorite of mine for a long time. I LOVE flexi attachments on my clothing. I like my clothing to move with me, and this shirt does just that. I have to say that this baseball cap is one of the only ones I've found that has a great texture and isn't too big for my head. And most importantly, the hair that comes with it is just as beautiful as the hat.

Troubled Youth






The new "Emo" look makes me laugh sometimes. Maybe I'm too old to understand how emotion is the same as fashion. Anways. I decided to mash up some things in my inventory and create my own "Troubled Little Girl" look. First off.. I love this Teddy Bear I picked up from !BC! He comes with an animation for you to hold him and you can purchase an animation and HUD to fly wih him as well. (I didn't, but I'm thinking about it. It's not right for your bear not to fly too..)
The top is from Tuli, and my skirt is from Kyoot Army. The Dead Naga skirt is one of the perfect mini skirts in SL. Super short, and highly detailed. I have alot of items from Canimal, but I especially love the mismatched socks. Perfect for those grungy days. Another one of my addictions? Prim nails. I love them. These are from Hex. Most ladies are addicted to eyelashes, and mine is nails. I tried lots of good glove style nails.. but it never was the same.
And now the best... Pornstar hi-tops! I can't even begin to say how many options come with these shoes. You can change nearly everything about them. I should have a blog just about these shoes. If you don't have these in your inventory, please go get them. You'll never need a pair of sneakers again!

Boho Chic

I'm normally the girl that always chooses black, but I stumbled into MG fashion and I fell in love with this top. It comes with a 2nd flexi attachment for just under the chest, giving it that tucked in baggy look; but I opted for the fitted shirt look. I got lots of compliments while wearing this and I new I needed to share this find! I chose the blue beaded purse from Pampered Princess to accent the shoes (which came from Last Call). And opted to pull my hair partially back with Armidi Hair. Giving that perfect look of casual yet chic. My necklace is from Earthtones, and I wear this necklace so much. Earthtones does it right. High Quality, without the bling. Ladies, bling is bad!
All I can think of is to sing "hippie chic", while drinking my cosmopolitan of course!

Cowgirl Mystique


It happens often in fashion that you plan your outfit around your amazing accessories. Rarely is your accessory larger than you. The moment I saw this horse from AKK Horse Ranch I bought him. He's a Fresian, and he has flexi long hair just like me. I waited to ride him until I found the perfect outfit. The detail of this horse is superior and I knew the detail needed to be parallel in my clothing of choice. Luckily I had a great outfit from Last Call that I got for the amazing price of 300L before it closed. Last Call closing was a sad day for many of us. The detail on the jacket is superb. All of their clothing was superb. Across the street from Last Call you could find Celestial Studios, where I purchased my hair. I love love love buying hair with the hat already attached. It takes my battle of matching a hair with a hat away...and my hair flows through the air as I speed through the trails on my horse.
